When you are considering hiring an agent to represent you as a seller or buyer in a real estate transaction, ask yourself these questions.

1). How much experience does this agent have? You want someone who has been involved in many transactions so they have some ready answers to the varied questions and situations that can come up.

2). Does this agent work at real estate full time? You want someone who is available at reasonable times to deal with issues in a timely manner, to get you to closing on time.

3). Does this agent combine the use of technology with old fashioned person to person communications, available to explain and resolve any issues? Email, texting - these tools are wonderful - but nothing beats a face to face discussion.

4). Does this agent have knowledge of the area where I am looking as a buyer or selling my property? (Isn't this one self-explanatory? Doesn't it just make sense??)

5). Does this agent have a network of other agents, tradespeople, attorneys, bankers - people he or she can call on to solve my real estate problem? This is what a real estate agent does - manage the process for you, relying on reliable people to get specific jobs done in a timely manner, and coordinating all that for you while you pack up your life in boxes.

We at Uptown Realtors think the answer to all these questions will lead you to CONTACT US, (where the average agent has over 20 years experience) for LOCAL, PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICE.

We want to tell you that we appreciated the effort you made to sell our home. In the past 6 months we've met with all manner of real estate "professionals", and I must say that you set a standard that few could meet.
Please free to use us as a reference any time!

In thinking about our one year of being in our house, it reminded me to thank Marybeth Richardson our real estate agent who walked us through every step of buying our home. She was very patient with me especially with my frayed nerves being so close to the wedding. I recommend her services to anyone looking to buy or sell!!!! Thanks again Marybeth!!!!!Kelly Munroe O'Driscoll
